Chapter 1, Sweet Dreams Coming True.

Simone woke up from a weird dream. In it she had seen herself and her sister Lucy walking round a city. She remembered feeling insecure. Shaking the feeling of her shoulders she walked to the kitchen where she found Lucy wide awake as well.

"I had this weird fucking dream you won't believe it!" Simone said getting herself some coffee.

"No disrespect sis, luv ya and all but yar weird"
Lucy said with a heavy accent while smiling at her older sister.
"OI I might be weird but I can still whip yer but if need be! And stop kidding round i'm serious here. It was kind of like the dreams I had when I was younger." Simone sat down at the table and looked at her baby sister.
"Ok might be, but not ALL of those dreams came true did they? Besides there are way more fun things to dream about in life." Lucy took a sip of her coffee.

"Oh yes I know. Cause honestly the dream I had about that guy yesterday was very... interesting." Simone replied grinning.
"Oh yes very nice, I so don't need to know that now!"

The girls lived in Ireland, in a small cottage like home one their own. Their parents had died when they were younger and since then they only had each other.

"Oh bullocks!" Simone said laughing now. "Don't tell me you never had dreams like that!"

"Ok I would be lying if I said that I didn't, but you don't see me sharing all the details about mine with you?"
Lucy took another drink before continuing. "I do have to say I have a new dream friend though....." She stopped talking and drifted back to her dream friend, the one with the sweet smile and very dark hair...

"Hello! Are you still on this planet?" Simone banged her hand on the table to attract Lucy's attention.
"What? Oh sorry drifted a bit." Lucy smiled thinking about her dreams. "So where were we going today?"

"Work in the factory as we do every day." Simone said looking at her sister.
"Aye, that's true, well it does really pay good."
"I know. Oh Darren (the boss) said there were going to be some newbie's!" Simone grinned evilly

Lucy smiled while looking at Simone. "Well good we'll have something to play with today then don't we!"

Simone smiled but then turned serious. "Yeah but Darren said we aren't allowed to chase people of anymore. So be a bit careful with what you do okay?"

Lucy grunted a small "ok" And got up to get her coat

When they got to the factory the both of them got their coffee and walked too there work stations. There they saw Darren standing with two men who had their back turned to them. Darren saw them approach and smiled.
"Ah your here! And only 20 minutes late today."
Lucy threw him a look. "Well if you like I could go back home....."
The second she had opened her mouth the two men turned, as soon as both Simone and Lucy saw them the plastic cups fell from their hands......

"Woops..." Simone said acting nervously
"Silly me, we will get some new coffee! See you in a bit!" Lucy said grabbing her sister's arm. As soon as they were out of earshot Simone and Lucy turned to each other.
"That is that guy from my dreams." They both said at the same time.

"What?" Both of them said at the same time again. Simone raised her hand to signal she was about to speak but it took her a moment to find the words.
"Ok so the blond kind of guy on the left is the guy I've been dreaming about! And your telling me that the dark haired guy is you 'new dream friend'?"
Lucy simply nodded because she couldn't find any words to describe the feeling seeing him in real life gave her.

Murphy took Connor by the arm. "Fuck me! See the girl with the curls.....that girl has been in my dreams for the past couple of nights."
Connor looked over to the two girls but wasn't really paying attention his eyes were still fixed on Simone

"What did you say?" Connor asked tearing his eyes of Simone.
"That girl with the girl is actually the girl from my dreams."
"Fuck me!"
"That's what I said!"
"The one with the long dark brown hair is the one I have dreamed about these past few weeks." Connor replied.

"Well fuck me again I say" Murphy said while rubbing the back of his neck. "What's this all about then?" Connor looked is twin in the eye "I don't know just act normal ok!" He hissed at Murphy while Lucy and Simone reluctantly walked back.

"What are we going to do?" Lucy mumbled out of the corner of her mouth.
"I don't know, but just try to act as normal as possible." Simone faked a smile as she hissed her words to Lucy

Darren cleared his throat when the girls came back. "Right, Simone ... Lucy this here is Connor and Murph."
"Hi," Simone said looking at Connor with glazy eyes.
"Hi." He replied looking at her while thinking about his dreams.
"Hullo." Murph said sticking his hand out. He handled this situation better then his brother he smiled to himself.
"Hi," Lucy took his hand and Murph had sudden flashbacks to last nights dream.

The factory turned hazy and all he could see was her face with a faint smile on it, her eyes looking deep into his as he leant forward to......
"Ya can let go now!" The sound of Lucy's voice pulled him back to reality. "Oh sorry." Murphy said pulling his hand back, so much for handling things better than his brother...

Simone felt Connor's thumb sliding over her hand while his eyes were staring into what seemed to be an abbeys.

Simone stared back into his when Lucy pushed her slightly. "Oh!" Simone said pulling her hand back and flushing. 'God this is so not me!' Simone thought while turning to face Darren.
"So what do you want us to do?" Simone asked backing away from Connor some more.

"Well I need Lucy on the packing line and you on the sorting line." Darren said while pointing with his clip-board.

'Please gimme the blond one please don't gimme the dark one' Lucy thought when Darren turned round.
Simone was having the same thought in her head. Then Darren turned to assign each of them one of the guys to train.

'Gimme Murph please please gimme Murph' Simone thought
'Gimme Simone, c'mon please!' Connor thought
'I could work with Connor not with Murph' Lucy thought
'Wonder what's for diner tonight? Oh, wait who am I working with? Please let it be Lucy.' Murph thought

"Connor you go work with..." Darren paused thinking hard... "Simone"
Both of their eyes snapped open, Connor's with delight displaying in his eyes and Simone's portrayed horror.
'How the hell am I supposed to look him in the eyes?' Simone thought looking at her sister desperately.

Lucy didn't notice her sisters pleading eyes looking at her; she was bumped stuck at the fact she had to work with Murph. "So what are we going to do then?" Murph said with a smile in his face.
"What!?! Oh work right, follow me." Lucy said now turning to Simone and saw the horror in her sister's eyes.
Simone was still trying to think of a way to work with Connor with out thinking about her dreams....aaw but the dreams had been...."About things you don't think about at work!" She reprimanded herself.
Connor stood opposite her with a real content smile on his face.

"Right, follow me then." Simone said walking in front of Connor, who quickly walked on to walk besides her. "So, what is it we have to do exactly?"
"Well you will go help me at the..." Simone made the mistake of looking at him again. "The... the..."
Connor smiled at her. 'Damn it, get a fucking grip woman!' "We'll go sort stuff!"
"What's wrong?" Connor asked smiling
"Nothing! It's just I dropped my morning coffee, and I really do need my coffee in the morning."

"Coffee is a good fuel to start on, that's right indeed."
Connor wanted to hit himself, he had his dream girl in front of him, literally, and he was jabbering about coffee?

"So when do you lot have lunch round here?" Lucy looked up at Murphy. "What are you on about? We've just started working!" Murph said nothing and just looked at her like he was seeing water burn.
"Right. Now this is the complicated bit, you might want to write this down." Lucy said looking at Murphy; he actually did look at her with extreme concentration. "You take one of these boxes and stack it on the pallet. If the pallet gets full you have it driven away and get a new one."
Murphy suppressed a smile. "So....after I stack them I...... have them taken away?" There was no mistaking the sarcasm in his voice.

Simone led Connor to the convear belt "Right this is where the sorting takes place, grab some gloves!" She shouted over the rattling of the belt.

Connor grabbed some gloves. "Now when the cd boxes get over here, check them on damage and take out the ones which are damaged!" Simone once again yelled.

"Right!" Connor yelled back still looking at her. 'Stop! Must remember our destiny it needs my full concentration.'

"I am getting us some coffee!" Simone walked away and looked back just as Connor bended down to check the CD boxes. 'Oh fuck, even his bum is as firm as in my dreams.' She hit herself across her forehead and walked off to the coffee machine where she ran into Lucy.

"Hiya" Lucy said with a faint voice. "I think this isn't good, I am not going to be able to work with him all day I almost got run over by a fork lift a few seconds ago!" Lucy pointed to the back and Simone saw Murphy stacking boxes. "I know what you mean; all I can think about is Connor in my dreams. This is not good! We have more important things to focus on..."

The both of them stood there each holding two cups of coffee.

They looked at each other both knowing what was meant by those words.
Destroy all which is evil, so that all which is good may flourish.

"Aye, we will just have to deal." Lucy said
"Aye, I will see you at lunch then." Simone replied walking off.

"Here you go." Simone shouted handing Connor his coffee.
"Thanks, coffee good." Connor said again smiling faintly
"Aye..." Simone looked at her boots and her ripped jeans...

At least she wasn't gonna attract attention wearing this.

Connor glanced over to Simone again, with one hand she was drinking her coffee and with the other she was easily sorting there covers. Did she have any idea how hot she looked in those ripped yeans?

Lucy's eyes were fixed on one point as she sat back on the stack of empty pallets.

Murph stood in front of her sipping his hot coffee.

"FUCK!" Murph yelled, he had been watching Lucy in such intensity that he didn't notice his coffee to be that hot.
"What?!" Lucy looked up at him
"I buwend wy wouth." He said half pouting
"Don't be suck a fucking baby!" Lucy laughed.

"its not fwucking fwunny." He said still holding his hand on his mouth.
"If blood isn't gushing out your not hurt!" Lucy said while she got up. "Now stop whimpering and let me look."
She raised her hand to his face and as soon as she touched him the both of them felt like they had been electrocuted.

"Fuck me!" Lucy said looking at her hand
"Ow gweat now not only my mouth huwts but my face as well." Murph scolded
"Right must have been statically electricity." Lucy said knowing better.
"Yeah must have..." Murph replied now his hand off his mouth.

"So..." Connor said trying to think of a conversation.
"You and Lucy been sisters long?" 'Oh my god what a stupid question!'

Simone smiled 'how cute!' "Yeah for about 22 years! Duh" Simone replied harshly.

"Stupid!Stupid!Stupid!" Connor thought to himself, what was up with him? Every time he opened his mouth something stupid came out.

Simone watched him while he thought. "How bout you and Murphy How do you know each other?" Connor was happy she switched topics. "He's me brother actually, i'm the smart and handsome one of the family." He said with a smile

"Don't do that!" Simone thought feeling her cheeks going red. "Is that right now?

"Aye don't tell me you can't see that!"

'Oh I can' Simone thought. "No I hadn't noticed." Simone answered with a twinkle in her eyes.

"How about we go for a drink after work?" Connor asked.

'Say no! Just say neeeey, say it .. say no!' "Aye I would love to!" Simone said smiling. 'WHAT DID YOU DO!!!!' She thought to herself.

Murphy looked over his shoulder to Lucy. "So where can you get a decent drink round here?" He was hoping to invite her for a drink.
"That would be at the Hog, why you planning on getting smashed?" She smiled at him, was he trying to do what she think he was trying to do?
"Aye I was actually, wanna come?" "please say yes pleeeeaaaasssee..." he thought while looking at her.

"Aye I'll come." Was all Lucy said, Simone wasn't gonna like it but she really wanted to go.

After work Simone waited for Lucy at their lockers. She pulled out her cell phone and waited for Lucy to get out hers.

"I... I am going to get a drink tonight." Simone started
"Oh me too, Murph invited me."
"HE DID?!" Simone looked at her sister.
"Aye..."
"Well Connor invited me so I guess we're square"

"Where are you going then?" Simone asked looking at her sister.
"I was thinking about the Hog, it's the only place with decent beer. Where are you going?" Simone nodded her head. "Dunno he said he knew a place so I'll see when I get there."

They both said goodbye and walked out of the women's locker rooms.

Outside Connor stood waiting for Simone by his car while Murph got into the car with Lucy.

"So where are we going?"
"The prancing pony, just up the road." Connor replied.

They got there fairly quickly and sat down at a table far away from all the people in the bar. Connor ordered them some beer.

Simone shuffled a bit in her seat, this was weird to say the least. She had been dreaming about this guy for a few weeks and now she was having a drink with him!

Connor looked at her lost in her thoughts, this was his chance to get to know her. "Just make sure you stay away from the stupid remarks!" He said to himself as he turned to talk to her.

"So yer 22 years old then?" Connor asked taking a swig from his pint
"Ney, I am 24. Lucy is 22." Simone replied. "How about you and Murph?!"

Meanwhile Murph and Lucy got into the hog and they had almost covered every detail to their life's on the way over.
Almost everything...

"So i'm a twin and you're the younger sister, the rest we covered just one more thing." Murphy looked at her while she was driving. "What?" Lucy felt uncomfortable with i'm looking at her like that. "Well I was just wondering..... If you.. Well if you..." Lucy was getting impatient. "Would ya spit it out already!" "Do you have a "relationship' at the moment?' He asked while air quoting the word with his fingers

Lucy laughed "No I don't have a," she let the steering wheel go to quote the word "relationship at the moment. Ho about you?"
"Nope. Not me."

Simone looked at Connor he had just taken a sip from his pint again and now had an utterly flattering beer must agree

"Uhm Connor, come a bit closer will you..." Simone said

Connor felt his hart starting to beat furiously, she wouldn't would she? In a pub full of people?
Simone got the urge to do something else with the foam than just whipped it away with her hand. She corrected herself just in time and Connor was now leaning into her with is eyes half closed.
She raised her hand and gently brushed away t the foam with her thumb, letting her other fingers rest on his cheek.

"There, you had a little.." She showed him the foam on her thumb before sticking it in her mouth to clean it.

Connor smiled at her. "Thanks.." he looked at her and felt the strong urge to kiss her there and then... but restrained himself. Simone saw his inner struggle and had to smile. She felt the same way.

Murph and Lucy sat at a table. "I don't want to hear it Murph, Limo is a word in common usage."

"Like Fuck it is! Look we are playing scrabble! If the word isn't in the dictionary it doesn't fucking count!" Murphy said with a half drunken voice.
"Oh yeah, and what about your word of: thingymewhatsits for triple world score and cross over points!" Lucy moved her hand over the scrabble board but as she was also well on her way of being drunk she accidentally whipped of all the small stones. "Whoops!" She said smiling.

"Whoops! You just knocked over 4 hours worth of careful scrabbling and all you can say is whoops?" Murphy looked at her and wanted to sound angry but couldn't hide his smile.

Simone sat back listening tot the back ground music playing, it was getting late and she would have to go soon. As soon as Connor would be back from the men room she would say goodnight.

Connor came walking back. "Connor? I think it's time to go." Simone said not looking happy about it.

"If you want to..." Connor's face fell. He didn't want to take her home.

" You don't really look like you're in a state to walk, are you ok?" He walked up to her and looked into her eyes, she was as good as waisted!

"I'm fine! Hey you have really nice eyes you know that?" She bent her head a bit to see them better and smiled at him. He was really good looking!

Connor wanted to believe she said it but managed to convince himself that it was the beer talking. "Come on lets get you home." He said while helping her up and getting her to the car.

"I meant what I said you know." Simone said as they walked to the car.

"You had something to drink..."

"Ah but do they not say you do tell the truth when yer drunk? Besides I am not that drunk."

Connor smiled.

Simone tripped on a rock and fell over hitting her head hard on the floor.

"Oh Fuck!" Simone lay on her back looking up at the sky. "Nice very nice ! And embarrassing too!"

Connor bent down to get her up just as Simone sat up. Their faces only inches away from each other.
"Are you okay?" Connor whispered.
"I think so." Simone said looking into his beautiful eyes. She raised her hand to touch the side of his cheek and slightly frowned. "You really do have beautiful eyes, just like in my dreams." Simone slurred.

Connor's hart stopped for a second "Like in her dreams!" his head was racing at those words.
Simone could have killed herself. "You do tell the truth when yer drunk! And you say things you shouldn't ya silly cow!" She was angry with herself, how was she going to explain that?

Somehow Lucy had managed to walk out the pub and get in the car with out falling flat on her face. She could hold her drink all right but Murphy had been a good match. She closed her eyes for a second and tried to focus on getting the key into the lock.

"Maybe we shouldn't be driving lil miss daisy!" Murph laughed at his own joke.

"Then what else do you suppose we do? Walk?!"

"Why not?" Murph walked up to her and stood really close. For a moment Lucy held her breath. "Aye .. Why not." Murph slowly leaned into her and Lucy closed her eyes. "Would he kiss her?!"

Murphy looked at her for a second he really wanted to kiss her, he wanted to find out if it would be like his dreams or not.
Lucy waited for it and then remembered the conversations she had with Simone this afternoon, she ducked away from Murphy. As much as she wanted him to kiss her it couldn't happen! She sobered up pretty quick and looked at him. "Well we'd best get walking then." She said moving away from him.

"What the fuck happened?" Murph thought as he saw Lucy walk off.

Connor still sat on the floor next to Simone. "Why did she say it? Damn the beer!" She thought furiously.

"Dreams?" Connor asked looking into her eyes still.

"Uhm I don't know what I'm on about you know..."

"I think that was my beer talking." Simone said now looking at the ground, if she would look at him he would tell she was telling a lie.
"Aye must be..." Connor looked at her, why wouldn't she look at him?
Simone hoped that he would believe her, she needed to get away from him before things would get out of hand.
She scramble onto her feet and took a step away from him.
Connor sighed, she wasn't going to explain herself. "Ok let's just get you home.' He said while opening the car door.

On the way back they both didn't say anything. They arrived at Simone's house and Connor turned off the engine.

"I've had dreams too." Connor said
'damn I hoped he would forget.' Simone thought "About what?"
"About you."
"Fuck me!"
"Well that's basically it." Connor grinned, as Simone playfully slapped him.
"Did you think it were nice dreams?" Simone asked now looking at him.
"Aye.." he answered

Connor looked at Simone hoping she would explain about her dreams now. She on the other hand was to busy calming herself down to notice him waiting for an answer.

Lucy walked a few steps in front of Murphy. "Keep on walking, keep on walking don't look back at him keep on walking!" she kept repeating to herself.
Murphy looked at Lucy's back. "Whats the fucking rush?" he asked her.
"Damn! Now I have to turn round!" Lucy thought as she turned to face him.

"Well besides the fact that.. It's dark, it's also very cold!"
She stopped walking and looked at him.
Murph took of his jacket and walked up to her.
'Great, now he's being sweet too!' Murph stopped when he was close to her and wrapped his jacket round her. "Here you go." He said looking at her. Again their faces were only inches away. Lucy wanted to kiss him badly, and find out if his lips were as soft as they had felt in her dreams.

Simone was wigging out. He liked his dreams about me. Oh my god!
"How about your dreams?" Connor now asked raising an eyebrow.
"They were... interesting to say the least." Simone said opening the door. Connor opened his too and walked her to her front door but they stopped by a little brick wall with ivy running through it. Simone leaned against it. She didn't want the evening to stop.

"So." Connor said looking at her hoping he could talk to her some more, he really didn't want to leave. "So.." Simone said hoping that he would carry on talking so she wouldn't have to go inside.
"Do you know if there are any places for rent round here?" Connor eventually asked not being able to think of anything else to say.
"Well we rent this place from old man Moneghan, he has a few places round here you could talk to him." Simone looked at him before grabbing her cell phone. "Ill give you his number now and you can talk to him later." Connor moved on her. "Id rather talk to you than some old man." He said raising his hand to touch the side of her face.
Before Simone knew what was happening his lips touched hers.

Simone wigged again. What should she do? As Connor pressed his lips against hers she felt herself relax in his arms. They broke loose and looked at each other. Simone let her fingers go over her own lips then reached out and touched his before again leaning in for a kiss.

Lucy and Murph stood in front of each other. "Is this better?" Murph asked rubbing her arms. Lucy saw the Goosebumps on his own arms. "Your cold." Lucy said. "That's okay." Murph replied not breaking eye contact. Lucy opened her arms and wrapped the jacket round them both.
Murph didn't know what to think but he had to smile as he hugged Lucy. Lucy's heart was racing, she never moved this fast. And their destiny, what was to become of that?

Murphy saw the hesitation in her eyes, he wanted to kiss her so much he really didn't want her to pull back now! He pulled her closer to him and kissed her, a soft kiss first and then when she made no objection a stronger passionate one.

Simone looked at Connor as they broke apart. "Well that was interesting to say the least." Connor said with a smile on his face.

"Definitely better then my dreams." Simone said softly pulling herself onto the little wall.
"I agree... about my dreams that is." Connor said standing in front of her.
"So where do we go from here?" Simone asked

"I don't know" Connor said. "Let's start with going out again and trying not to get smashed and get to know each other." Simone nodded and looked at his face again, the light of the moon reflected little stars in his eyes.
Connor looked at Simone while she looked at him, with her mouth half open.

Connor smiled and kissed her again. "I'm going home now."
"Aye, me too." Simone gestured behind her.
"One more.." Connor said holding on to her and kissing her again.
Simone laughed when they broke loose. Then Connor left to his car and Simone went inside the house.

Murph and Lucy were walking on again, neither of them talking much. Lucy didn't know what to think...

Simone lay in a deep sleep, again dreaming about Connor. He lay next to her stroking her arm softly. In the distance she heard the family prayer and the priest talking.
'And Sheppard's we shall be... And they just simply walked away! Poor Kitty... Vengeance must be taken. I shall count thee among my favoured sheep. The four shall spread their blackened wings and be the vengeful striking hammer of god!'

Simone shot up sweating looking at the ceiling as she gasped for breath.

Every now and then Lucy looked at Murphy from the side of her eyes. Their kiss had been great, just like she had dreamed about, but although she felt all warm and fuzzy, the back of her head was going crazy. What was going to happen? She liked Murphy but she knew her path in life was planned and so very different then what was conceved to be normal.

Murphy saw her looking at him, he wished she would say something. He wanted to talk about what had happend between them but she didn't say anything.

When they got to the gate of her house she turned to him and handed him back his coat. "Thank you."
When Murphy reached for it his hand slid past hers, again the both of them felt the electric shock go through them. With out saying a word Murphy took her by the hand and pulled her close to him, he took her face in his hands and kissed her again.

After a few minutes he let go of her and looked at her again. "I hope we can do this again some time soon."
Lucy was hypnotized by his eyes and it took her a while to respond. "Yes lets." She said knowing in the back of her head that following her feelings might not be such a good idea. "I'd better go inside now." Lucy let go of his hands and wanted to turn when he pulled her back to him, he looked at her for a second and then kissed her forehead.
"I'll see you tomorrow." He looked at her one more time and then walked of, Lucy stood by the gate for a while looking at him walking back.
She sighed and then turned to go in the house.
